Nancy Pelosi: It’s Not Obamacare-It’s called the ‘Affordable Care Act’

On Thursday, at her weekly press conference, Mrs. Pelosi was asked by a reporter whether Democrats would vote with Republicans to impose new privacy safeguards in health care, and if so, whether that would be a signal Democrats are worried about the politics of the law.“Absolutely not,” Mrs. Pelosi said. “First of all, it’s called the ‘Affordable Care Act.’ If that’s what you’re referencing, yeah, they are going after the Affordable Care Act.”

If we can’t call it Obamacare, can we call it “The thing we wouldn’t understand until we passed it,” or “Take-away-your-existing-plan-o-care,” what about, The-Cost-Of-My-Heathcare-Is-Now-Too-Damned-High-o-care,” or even “The-It’s-Not-Affordible-And-They-Don’t-Care-Act?”

Nah too many letters..sorry Nancy..Obamacare it is.
